HSK3486 Product Profile
Mechanism of Action:
- The primary mechanism of action for HSK3486 is to increase chloride ion influx through the gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor subtype A (GABAᴀ)-mediated ion channels to achieve central nervous system (CNS) depression
- HSK3486 possesses a novel structure analogous to propofol; however, aims to provide clinically meaningful improvements as a result of its modified chemical structure
- HSK3486’s structure is unique with a single-configuration R-designation chiral center and a terminal cyclopropyl group. It has been engineered to enhance the pharmacological and physicochemical properties of drug-receptor binding in a systematic manner
- Striving to demonstrate improvements of HSK3486 as the next generation anesthetic beyond propofol
- Significant reduction in local pain during injection
- Potentially less respiratory depression, paired with high efficacy, providing an ideal depth of anesthesia
